It uses Firebase for networking.

Yes, it does.
From the network inspector, click the one that says "web sockets"
Then select the entry from the list, looks something like ".ws?v=5&ns=pixelpals-server"
Then select frames from the 3 options "Headers Frames Cookies"
Should see the json data

Was a Node implementation originally, but Heroku's free tier for Node didn't offer much persistence.

I'm shocked!
